Clancy Jurors Speak Up About The Lone Holdout

As the deadlocked jurors of the Lindsay Clancy trial are sprung from civic duty, several of the women on the jury opened up about what happened behind closed doors.

To recap, no verdict was reached in the trial because one lone juror refused to find Lindsay Clancy, a woman who strangled her three young children to death (and admitted to this), not guilty by reason of insanity.

But, but but…the Lone Juror admitted that he held doubts after watching a video,” said one juror.

I started filling out forms, I was so excited. There were three forms I had to fill out and I started filling them out, I wrote my signature on each one but then he said, ‘But I’m still not going to say she’s not guilty by reason of insanity.’”

So excited? Excited about what, exactly? That you were ready to sign off and give reprieve to a woman who had a hand (or two) in killing her kids? Is this what excites people these days?

And, murder is murder.

He was very arrogant. He really did not take anything that anybody said.”

…Said another juror. You know what else is a very arrogant notion? Playing God and taking the life of another person,or-in the case of Lindsay Clancy, another three people.

The coffee klatch on camera continues with another juror’s musings:

Every one of us in the hours of our frustration would get up and walk the room because you just couldn’t sit anymore. And we would all go to the cart with the exhibits. He, I think, got up to the cart once very briefly and went back to his seat.”

He would not interact with us and try to understand. We read to him, on numerous occasions, the definition of reasonable doubt from Judge [William] Sullivan’s instruction.

But he had the hardest time getting over the fact that Lindsay viciously killed her children.”

They seemed to “get over the FACT” (she said it, not me) that Clancy viciously killed her children. Maybe, just maybe, THAT was his understanding. They were so excited to sign the papers and then, the arrogant, manly-man-misogynist, who only glanced at the exhibits once, did not cave to the pressure of the Karens who were pushing for a not-guilty verdict. How dare he!

The jurors said the prosecution did not show enough compassion for Clancy. They were haaaaash (harsh), very haaaahhhsh in their treatment of this poor woman…

…who, I will mention again, strangled her three young children. The prosecution did not show enough compassion? Pray tell, what in the way of compassion was extended to those sweet kids?

The jury foreperson, the one who was so excited to sign the papers but robbed of all jubilance by a MAN, is-get this-a retired fifth grade special needs teacher.

Let me guess. She took lots of professional development sessions and participated in many a book study on anti-bullying but she was COMPLETELY FINE with signing off on papers that proclaimed a woman who choked the life out of her kids was innocent. Thank your lucky stars this woman was not the teacher of your special needs child. Jesus.

And, if the above is not bad enough, Clancy’s defense lawyer made an appeal on Good Morning America for Trump to pardon his client:

Mr. President, I would hope that you would consider this young lady – the type of person she is and what she’s been through – and consider a pardon.”-Kevin Reddington

The jurors found Mr. Reddington to be, quote, “funny” and “entertaining”. I’m sorry? Did they not realize they were not at a comedy show and were sitting on a murder trial of someone who strangled three young children? A few years back, I sat on a jury. It was a pretty heavy case (not murder, but a series of rapes that happened over 20 years ago) and no one, I repeat, no one, was “excited” about delivering a verdict. The deliberation room was tense, quiet. Somber, even. There was no confetti or party streamers. Now, back to the excited forewoman for a spell. Was she excited because she finally got to go home to her cats? Or was she excited because she had an agenda, that she would be deemed the hero to all those donned in pink outside of the courthouse? Was the man juror’s serious stance and holdout perceived by these women as “arrogance”?

If wanting justice for innocent children is labeled as arrogance, boy, has our culture gone down the toilet.

It is not at all that I have no sympathy for a woman who is having a hard time physically, emotionally or psychologically. There is a lot on the spectrum of women’s health that has largely been discounted. If only the medical community prioritized health initiatives for postpartum, perimenopausal and menopausal women instead of providing surgeries, mental health counseling and hormone injections for men who want to be women and for children whose parents tell them they want to be the opposite gender. Maybe, just maybe, Lindsay Clancy would have gotten some help. Maybe those children would still be alive today.

To all you moms out there, keep on trucking. There will be times you feel like you are losing your mind because-hormones. But, in your hearts, you know that you would do anything to protect those humans that gave you the honored title of “Mom”. Love them. Hug them often. Hold them close.

To the Lone Juror, wherever and whoever you are, cheers. May you never have to buy a drink ever again.

    “But he had the hardest time getting over the fact that Lindsay viciously killed her children.”

    Well they are only dead children and thus, to those of a feminist/leftist/woke mien, disposable and of no value.

    “The jurors said the prosecution did not show enough compassion for Clancy.”

    The prosecutors are lawyers dealing with the letter of the Law and facts, not social workers. They are meant to be objective.

    • A reader says:

      The burden of proof lies with the prosecution. In America, defendants are innocent until proven guilty. According to now 5 of his fellow jurors, the holdout agreed that the prosecution did not meet the burden of proof beyond a reasonable doubt. His feelings about Lindsey’s guilt DO NOT MATTER. If the prosecution failed to prove their case, then he had no choice but to vote to acquit her, or vote not guilty by reason of criminal responsibility. (That’s what the insanity plea is called in MA.)

      Also, not guilty by reason of criminal responsibility just means that she wouldn’t be put in prison. She’d go to a mental hospital and stay there until she was deemed no longer a danger to herself or society. She would not walk free.

      I swear it’s like none of you remember OJ and Casey Anthony. If the prosecution does a terrible job proving their case, not guilty is the only answer. That is literally the law and how it works.

  • Compassion is for a person that, due to a mental disability, is unable to control their actions. It’s easy to have compassion for a sufferer from Tourette’s, for instance.

    The job of the prosecution in this case was to prove that Clancy WAS able to control her actions, but chose not to. That being so, showing even a scintilla of compassion would be a failure in the task assigned to them.

    I hope one dark morning she wakes up and realizes what she said and repents before it’s too late.

  • A reader says:

    OMG God help ANYONE if you are ever asked to serve on a jury!

    Some facts:

    1. It’s ALLEGEDLY killed her children. She has not been convicted yet. The only admission of guilt that has been made was in her civil trial which has no bearing on the case. Her plea in the criminal trial that just occurred was “Not guilty.” Her lawyer asked for the trial to be bifurcated, which means separated, so that both her criminal responsibility and mental state could be decided separately. The judge said no. Using her mental state was a trial strategy by the defense, not an admission of guilt. Allowing certain pieces of evidence in and not others, was also not an admission of guilt. In criminal trials the burden of proof ALWAYS lies with the prosecution. And Massachusetts, the burden to show her mental state also lies with the prosecution. You’d know this if you bothered to actually read about the trial or followed it closely.

    2. The law stipulates that if you have reasonable doubt that the prosecution did not meet the burden of proof you MUST acquit the defendant. Your feelings DO NOT MATTER. You are to vote on the facts of the case, period. Even if you feel the defendant truly committed the crime. (See OJ and Casey Anthony.)

    2. There have now been two other jurors who have come out and said basically the same thing as the three women you’re speaking of. Including one of the other men. That’s nearly 1/2 the jury! And they all agree so far that the holdout had reasonable doubt whether the prosecution proved their case but refused to follow the law. This means that even though he stated he felt the prosecution didn’t prove their case beyond a reasonable doubt, his feelings were that she was guilty. That’s breaking the law and violating his oath as a juror.

    3. Clearly this author has never been on a jury or spoken to someone who has or she would understand that debate and discussion are literally what jurors are required to do! Changing your mind during the course d discussion is par for the course. Go watch “12 Angry Men.” You might learn something.

    The forewoman using the word “excited” doesn’t mean she was excited about the children dying. That is so stupidly disingenuous it makes you look like a moron. They’d been deliberating for nearly 40 hours. They were tired. They were frustrated. She was likely relieved that it might finally be done. Her excitement as it were, likely stemmed from that. Anyone with half a brain would know that. And any feelings or thoughts they had about the prosecution and the defense are their right to have. The issue is whether they followed the law. From what all 5 have said, they did. The holdout did not.
